I finally won the battle and convinced my hubby to let me go grocery

I know we add some water weight before Tom but how long before the
water is flushed out?

Very interesting Horizon programme shown this evening. The programme
correctly identified that those on Atkins regain control of appetite,
and therefore eat less calories than those on a carb diet.

I have been on induction for 8 days.  No diet drinks or anything? Can
I have those?  I want something sweet so bad. Everytime I see it I

Greetings all.  Just found this wonderful forum and hopefully have a
relevent question that hasn't been beat to death.  I tried Google for sites

I am one of those who has been complaining about only losing 2 lbs so far on
SBD and I am in a bit of a quandary here.  This Friday marks the end of

have found many sugarless ones, they are still packed with carbs.  Can
someone tell me of a brand that I can have?  I am in Orangeville, Ontario

Desserts" by Diana Lee.  She uses a packet of unflavored gelatin in
her ice cream recipes - this gives it a full volume and smooth texture
as well as helps prevent it from turning into a block of ice if you

Perhaps snot is not lo carb.

Hey all - I've been lurking for a while and just started Atkins on
Monday.  I'm still new to this shopping thing, and the reason I'm
going on Atkins is because between job and other commitments, I found
myself eating out of my car 4 days out of the week for the last year
